You can call it a shocking sign of the times - Tupperware parties are starting to be replaced by "Taser parties."
A woman in Arizona recently hosted a party where she served cheese and apple cider while a law enforcement officer demonstrated Tasers.
After a short question and answer period, visitors were able to try the non-lethal weapons out for themselves.
The response was pretty positive.
"Its light, its small, it comes in colors but if you know you are going to be in a certain situation where you might be uncomfortable, why not have it with you?" asked Lynne Rigberg, the host of the party. "It just makes you more confident."
There's no word on how many of the new "must have weapon for women" were sold at this party.
